FAQ
Why is Indian B2B marketplace PM especially hard?
Because you're selling to business owners who prefer phones over apps, credit over cash, and known suppliers over marketplaces. Building trust at scale means blending digital product with offline sales teams, field-agent networks, and phone support. Pure-digital playbooks from consumer marketplaces fail.
